Saudi Arabia, Qatar, & the U.A.E. could soon influence:

CNN
CBS
HBO
Nickelodeon
Comedy Central
MTV
& more

Why? They’re dumping $24B into Paramount’s bid for Warner Bros.

We can't let countries with a record of censorship dictate what you watch. I’m pressing for accountability.

It was found in Texas. It destroys cattle too. It was still in other countries and the US put in programs to ensure it wouldn’t enter the US again. 60 years of success.
Until Trump cut the funding, and now it’s back in the US. Are we Great Again yet?

🚨COLOSSAL NATIONAL SECURITY BREACH

Sen. Ron Wyden says foreign adversaries were able to access the LOCATION DATA of American troops deployed in war zones overseas.

Trump and Hegseth own this. Our troops deserve better than this incompetence.

[Epstein File Search @epsteinsearchin]

Rep. Thomas Massie, to FBI Director Kash Patel: "These documents in your possession detail at least 20 men, including Jes Staley, CEO of Barclays, who Epstein trafficked victims to, including minors like Virginia Roberts Giuffre."

🚨 BOMBSHELL: MS NOW exposes Trump's massive soybean scam. His disastrous tariffs forced China to buy from Brazil, destroying American markets.

To hide this, the Trump administration funneled billions in subsidies to farmers to cover up their catastrophic trade war!

California just held an election with paper ballots, signature verification, audits, bipartisan oversight, and public vote counting procedures.

You don’t get to yell “fraud” every time voters make a choice you don’t like.

Take the whiny little b*tch act somewhere else. We’re not buying that bullshit in this state!

From impeachment to corruption to adultery to pedophile protection to election denial, I deep-dive into Ken Paxton's record & why he is unfit to sit on a schoolboard let alone in the Senate.

LET’S KEEP IT REAL

According to Trump, Black jobs are in factories. And we already know if a Black person is a doctor, lawyer, engineer, executive, professor, pilot, or CEO, he calls it DEI.

Yesterday, Trump was asked why Black unemployment is still 7.3%, far above the national average of 4.3%.

His answer? Don’t worry, Black workers will do well when more factories and car plants open.

Apparently, in Trump’s America, our future is on the assembly line.

🚨BREAKING: In Chicago, ICE agents were caught on video assaulting a local chaplain for filming, and asking questions, about what was happening on her own street… AFTER the arrest was already made.

In the video, Alley Henny, a Black chaplain, is standing with her back against a parked car while recording.

An ICE agent is already pushing her backward as she simply asks:

“What did he do?”

But here’s what makes this situation even more disturbing…

The man had already been detained… He was already INSIDE the ICE vehicle.

The arrest was over.

That means, there was no active arrest taking place for her to “interfere with.”

Yet, multiple agents surrounded her anyway.

One agent yells, “Get back! We have a warrant for his arrest. Get out of here.”

She responds, “This is my neighborhood.”

The agent’s response?

“I don’t care.”

Then, while she’s already backed against a car, and surrounded by TWO agents… a THIRD agent rushes over, grabs her, and forcefully shoves her down the street while screaming, “GET BACK! I ALREADY TOLD YOU ONCE!”

And just to be clear…

She wasn’t stopping an arrest.
She wasn’t obstructing agents from reaching a suspect.
She wasn’t preventing agents from taking someone into custody.

The suspect was ALREADY IN THE VEHICLE.

So, this entire situation raises serious concerns about excessive force and retaliation against protected speech.

Because once the situation is already controlled, there’s no reason for that level of force against someone who’s just recording and asking questions.

And if that kind of response isn’t checked, and held accountable, it starts to send a very dangerous message…

That recording and questioning government actions can be met with physical violence, and intimidation.

And that’s exactly what the constitution is meant to prevent.

🚨 WOW: CNN confirms a massive supermajority of Americans completely reject Donald Trump's priorities. A staggering 68 percent say the US President is not focused on real issues.

He is intentionally ignoring inflation to focus on his own vanity projects. Total failure!

[Power to the People ☭🕊 @ProudSocialist]

Albanians are fighting harder against their land being stolen to build Epstein Island 2 than Americans ever fought against our CEOs, politicians, and presidents being in the Epstein files and raping children.

What Albanians are doing is extraordinary. Time for us to do the same!

[BrooklynDad_Defiant!☮️ @mmpadellan]

Ever wonder why trump doesn't do everything in his power to release ALL the Epstein files to clear his name?

Symone Sanders-Townsend and Michael Steele make it clear: it would be THE END for trump.

[Team Ossoff @TeamOssoff]

Ossoff: Last September, the President of Kazakhstan calls Donald Trump and says he wants to grant tungsten mining rights to an American company. And the very next month, Eric and Don Jr. get a stake in the American company pursuing the mining deal.

Six days later, six days after Prince Eric and Prince Don get their stake, Kazakhstan announces this company will get, “The largest known undeveloped tungsten resource in the world.” A few more weeks go by, and then the U.S. government, run by their father, sets aside 1.6 billion of your tax dollars to fund and finance their mining project. In Kazakhstan.

All this while you pay more for gas, for groceries, for health care, and that's just the tip of the iceberg.

Trump's National Guard surge violently detains U.S. citizen—for holding a sign.

She was standing on her own front porch.

3 soldiers block her from entering her home—tackle her to ground.

"Help! Help! You're breaking my arm!"
she cries.

"You came onto my property—you have no authority to detain me!"

Trump Administration announced a "surge" in the number of National Guard and ICE agents in DC to at least 5,000 last month.

On at least three additional occasions in the last two weeks, National Guard soldiers have handcuffed and detained people in DC.

This footage was submitted to FilmThePoliceDC on June 2.

Incident occurred in the Truxton Circle neighborhood of Washington, D.C.

[Elizabeth Warren @SenWarren]

At 4am, Senate Republicans gave the greenlight for the IRS to drop ALL investigations into Trump and his family.

That means if Trump is evading taxes, we’ll never know.

I have a bill to make this illegal. And I won’t stop fighting to get it done.

[Epstein File Search @epsteinsearchin]

In February, Rep. Thomas Massie read Attorney General Pam Bondi a line from the Epstein files.

Leslie Wexner, he said, is listed in them as a co-conspirator. Not to tax evasion. To child sex trafficking.

Nobody has been charged.

ICE cause car crash during high speed chase—at school bus stop.

Driver crashes on top of fence post—that gets stuck in his chest.

Firefighters cut the pole and rush him to hospital still impaled.

"Why was ICE chasing through our neighborhood with all our kids outside?" cried homeowner.

"It's insane to me—this is not supposed to he happening in our residential communities."

Local reporters confirmed they saw 3 or 4 school buses drive right past the accident site—with even more kids riding bicycles down the street.

Multiple neighbors stated that ICE agents were involved in the pursuit—and saw dozens of agents in green vests marked "ERO."

Local police have explicitly said they were not involved in any way.

The 30-year-old driver is currently listed in critical condition.

Firefighters cut the metal fence post but left a section in his upper right chest—so they could transport him and safely remove it in the emergency room.

Incident occurred near the intersection of Warwick Street and Whitlock Avenue on the west side of Detroit, Michigan.

[Joyce Alene @JoyceWhiteVance]

This is remarkable. Trump is giving Pulte, who lacks the statutory qualification (national security expertise) for the DNI job the position so they can manufacture another stolen election charge, or perhaps try to justify halting them altogether. It’s out in the open.
